Hello,
I was looking for feedback on the following question:-
When connecting two MM SFP/SFP+/XFP 's together...(short range).
What should be the best practice receive power range ?
Is it true that if the rx power is higher than (x?) then it shortens the life of the optics ?
(assumption being made here is that MAX Rx Power is not being exceed as per the spec sheets of the optics)
Regards
